U.S. Newspapers Briscoe Center for American History

The Briscoe Center for American History's newspaper collections also contain titles from around the United States. These titles are limited to the few dates listed or an incomplete, brief date run. A significant part of this collection consists of several hundred linear feet of newspapers published in every state of the Confederacy from the 1790s through the early 1900s. Holdings include extensive runs of early newspapers in hard copy from Charleston, South Carolina (1795-1942), Augusta, Georgia (1806-1885), New Orleans, Louisiana (1837-1914), and Little Rock, Arkansas (1819-1863). Many issues are scarce or extremely rare, including the only known copies of several important antebellum Louisiana and Mississippi newspapers.

Many of these newspapers are in Original Format (OR), and cannot be photocopied. Patrons have the option of photographing these newspapers themselves with no additional lighting and under the direct supervision of the Reading Room staff. Patrons must complete an Items Photographed by Patrons form. The resulting images are for research only and may not be published.
